No solution here, but your story and the subject you bring up really hits home. I'm only 57 but preparing with some of my peers for retirement in a couple of years. Of course we all prefer to focus on on our savings and investments and wonder how long they'll keep us going to Arizona. When the question of LTC comes up the discussion stops. Period. There amy be someone bold enough to bemoan the actual cost of the care, or,worse to some of us,the cost of the insurance.

But, I applaud you for putting the matter Foolishly before us, and as always,in the good manner of what I've come to expect of the Fools I find here.
